Lovely hotel with great staff, had an event in the ballroom which was divine. Would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a place to hold a conference or summit/function in Brisbane.

I’ll just say that we were all super impressed with everyone from the Sofitel involved in the lead up and the evening itself. Service was on point and nothing was too much trouble.
